labor day weekend
it seems i've always spent labor day weekend at school or preparing to leave for some foreign country, but not this year. this year, i stayed put, and had a great time.
on friday, after working the first of a bunch of days for the stafford lake festivities (i'll get to that in a minute), i was lucky enough to attend a party at jay's house - a 70s party, nonetheless. it took devon and i forever to get ourselves all primped and ready, and we had a ridiculously fun time in the process (perhaps even more fun was had preparing than at the party itself, though that's debatable). we met up with this crew at the kennedys, then headed up to sebastopol to party. late as we were, we really got the party started with some killer disco music and our fantabulous costumes. it was great.
 the next day, the satur one, was spent setting up tables at stafford lake. this may sound like a real drag, unless of course, you get to drive around in the GEM CAR. man, those electric babies are a real dream. on friday (backtracking a bit here), i rose shotgun as a coworker drove the ol girl from downtown to stafford, and we ran out of juice. we thought we would probably die right there on the windy roads out to stafford, but we didn't. we coasted right into the park, then pushed it to the corp yard for a nice recharge. by the time i got behind the wheel, there were no more problems.
after an exciting labor day at the lake event (the city of novato's annual big shabang), which i spent in a tiny box of a ticket booth selling tickets and directing people onto the shuttle buses, i was pooped... but not pooped enough to forgo driving the gem car around some more, taking down tables and cleaning up the park.
oh man, what a weekend.
